The article considers the effect of axial load on the turns of the thread of the planetary roller-screw converter of rotational motion into translational one. For this purpose an experimental setup was made in which the nut lies end-face on the flat surface of the press, a screw is screwed into it. The force is applied to the screw through a ball to distribute the load uniformly. The design of the machine for compression measurement allows automatic recording the axial mutual movement of tested mechanism parts when the loading force changes. Contact and displacement occur when the loading force reaches 300 N. The results are obtained in the form of a "force – displacement" graph. In the course of the experiment, the influence of step error on the uniformity of the contacts of the turns of the mating parts of the planetary roller-screw mechanism was checked. The results of the experiment are analyzed, the influence of inaccuracy of manufacturing thread of planetary roller-screw mechanism parts on its capacity for use in feed drives of various machines is considered.

The experimental test results of glued-mechanical couplings of shaft — bush made with the use of anaerobic sealants are presented. Quantitative estimations of the surface layer quality of the mating parts were obtained that made possible to estimate values of surface waviness of the shaft and the bush. The methodology of the waviness determination of cylindrical couplings is described. The influence of fit on mechanical strength of the shaft — bush coupling depending on properties of a used anaerobic sealant was established.
